Bulldogs Give Judo A Go
The Western Bulldogs have been utilising the highly effective and adaptable 'Zenith Program' to assist a group of their players during their 2010 pre-season. The group of 9 players were exposed to elementary concepts of balance and certain basic judo techniques in
cluding throws, falls and rolls. The selection of throws and balance techniques were made primarily to assist improve tackling technique and efficiency - a subsequent benefit to this style of training is an increase in physical confidence.
The group started out enthusiastic yet tentative at first, as most of what was being shown was somewhat foreign. However, once the blocks fell into place all players met each new challenge with supreme confidence. Zenith Sports Services, through it's Zenith Program, has once again shown that Balance and Judo priciples can not only compliment but enhance the skills of athletes such as Footballers.
The Zenith Sports Services' 2010 pre-season program to a group of Western Bulldogs Players has been highlighted with an article on the Western Bulldogs Website to read the full story click on the link below.
